Mozilla fonts

["Peter B. West" <pbwest@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I install the Mozilla 1.4 rpm, I get access to the fontconfig fonts 
system, including (it appears) virtual oblique fonts, created on the 
fly.  These appear in the Mozilla fonts dialog, separated by a 
horizontal line from the other available fonts.  If I select these 
generic fonts, or the Luxi fonts (which appear to be the same thing) or, 
say, the Bitstream Vera fonts from OpenOffice, the results are gorgeous. 
 If I now download and install Mozilla 1.5, copying the 
/usr/bin/mozilla scritp from the 1.4 RPM, making the appropriate 
modifications, the font picture is completely different.  Now the 
fotnconfig system fonts are not available, and if I select Luxi or Vera, 
the results are terrible.  What's going on?
